The Bully's Obsession novel Chapter 9

　　I stared at my reflection in the mirror.

　　I looked like I had survived a war, dark smudges were under my eyes , my eyes looked dull and my face was awfully pale.

　　My gaze lingered where I had cut myself last night .

　　Before yesterday my room was my safe haven where I could cry, console myself whenever he had hurt me...

　　But he destroyed it last night when he broke in.

　　I still remembered when I first saw him, it had been back then in middle school , I was only eleven and he'd been thirteen, he was the new boy with beautiful green eyes who had just moved to town and everyone had wanted to be friends with him.

　　But he always stayed by himself quietly, almost all the girls in my class had a crush on him and I wasn't exempted

　　I had also wanted to become his friend just like everyone else, on that fateful day in the cafeteria i could still remember vividly, i hadn't been watching where I was going and I bumped into him spilling my orange juice on his shirt

　　I had just begun to apologize when he shoved me away so roughly that I fell to the hard floor 

　　"Are you blind!" He'd yelled ,his fists were clenched as he stared at me in pure anger

　　I felt bad for myself right then when the whole school bursted laughing

　　"I..I'm sorry" I whispered unwilling tears about to escape from my eyes

　　"Watch where you are going next time fatty " he sneered before storming off, the last part of his words drew more laughter and snickers from the other kids

　　I remembered crying the entire day at home and wouldn't eat anything, I had blamed myself for not watching my steps  and managed to annoy him, but he also shouldn't have said those mean things to me.

　　The next day the other kids began to pick on me calling me mean names ,it continued for several days until even my friends began to avoid me, none of them wanted to be linked with the fat girl, or a girl Hayden doesn't like .

　　One of the boys i couldn't remember his name went even as far as hitting me so badly against a desk while the others laughed as they watched

　　I remembered running to the bathroom and cried my eyes out, i refused to come out until the teacher searched for me.

　　Later that same day Hayden had gotten into a fight with the boy who had hit me, I remembered he'd looked so angry as he kept delivering cruel  kicks and blows to the boy.

　　The look on his face had terrified me, he looked like he enjoyed every bit of pain he inflicted on the boy 

　　He'd announced right then that no one was allowed to bully me or hurt me, in that moment he was my hero, my knight in shinning amour only that I had been sadly mistaken.

　　He only wanted to inflict every pain on me himself....

　　I was the only one he seems to despise a lot and I spent a lot of nights wondering what I ever did to offend him aside for spilling my juice on him which I already apologize for.

　　He made sure to ridicule and embarrass me publicly with every opportunity, I had no friends, the teachers weren't paying attention or they just didn't care, Dad was always traveling, even the few times I had told mom she always brushed it aside without a serious mind to it, she always used these words "It's just part of school , it will stop before you know it"

　　It only grew much worse

　　From them on i  kept everything he did to myself, it was just bottled up inside of me, when middle school was over I had thought I would gain freedom from him and would finally..but it once again was a sad misconception on my part.

　　We were quite rich, dad's job was producing enough income, i had told them then that I wanted to transfer to another school but they had refused,they kept talking about how Waters High was the best highschool around and I would have a bright future there, what they didn't know was that I only wanted to leave only because of Hayden

　　Then it had gotten physical , be began to shove me around lockers and desks, spilling drinks over my clothes,he had only used words to hurt me back  in middle school but as freshmen he got even more cruel...

　　Then I made a new friend Harry,  who had stood up against Hayden and had tried to speak up for me once, I don't know what Hayden did to him even till date but he came to school one morning and refused to look at me straight in the eye , it had continued for days ,when I confronted him about it he'd warned me to stay away from him, sooner after that he transferred to another school and I lost my only friend.

　　It got to a point that even the mention of his name could make me pee my pants, I had to obey him or face the consequences.

　　It had been limited to shoving , pushes , sometimes beatings if I disobeyed but then it changed
